Chair of Quality and Safety Committee – Josephine Spencer
Josie is a nurse by background, with 39 years’ service to the NHS. She was formerly Chief Executive of Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust from 2018 to 2021, and has held a number of director positions across community, mental health and acute care.
Born in Tamworth, Josie still has close family living in the area. This will be her first non-executive director position. She says: “I believe that working together in the ICS and as a member of the Integrated Care Board is the best opportunity we have to ensure our population gets the seamless care they deserve. I am delighted to be offered this exciting challenge. What really matters to me is making a difference to everyone in Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent – particularly those that we know have the greatest social and health disadvantages.”
